Wayne Eardley is a Montreal born award winning photographer and filmmaker living in Peterborough Canada. Wayne studied photography and film at Ryerson University.

"When I started seeing Wayne's images from among the 8,000 to 10,000 I review daily from our 550,000 members in 95 countries, they stood out immediately.

What I love about Wayne's images is that they tell a story. And it's ongoing. His style is so starkly beautiful, so elegant and there is a mystery behind them. When you look into the eyes you can see a connection Wayne has made with his subjects. You see their true selves."

- Jeanne Modderman is a Photography Producer at National Geographic and one of the Your Shot editors.

Before, during and after studying film and photography at Ryerson, Wayne travelled the world with camera in hand. His use of multiple formats kept him busy creating original looks that found their way into corporate offices, annual reports and private collections. Today, working mostly but not exclusively in digital format, the principles of his work have remained the same: understand the subject, understand the way the subject interacts with the world and create a visual link between the two.
